So Michael Kay has jumped on the Isiah stuff and here’s what we know. Dell Demps was given a significant promotion by Isiah Thomas in 2004. What I don’t understand is how he can broker any deal here. Demps answers to ownership. The Knicks, with or without Isiah, can propose a pretty strong offer. I understand the relationship with the owner, what I don’t understand is this need for Isiah because of his relationship the younger generation of players. Stephen A. Smith, and now Michael Kay, have both now stated that the thought is Zeke has “influence over the young African American players” in today’s NBA.

Kay said Paul has modeled his game after Isiah. CP3 was literally 3 Isiah was winning rings. And there is no evidence that Paul has ever said he wanted to be Isiah 2.0, actually 3.0 after Marbury, anywhere.

Essentially somewhere, someone is trying to re-establish Isiah as a “power broker” or is trying to make Isiah look good for helping the Knicks specifically with Amar’e.

LOL if Isiah was involved, LBJ would've came here? Really, because Wade, Bosh, and James had this **** planned in Beijing. Please.

Don't insult Donnie Walsh like that. If Isiah was here then the Knicks wouldn't even be in a position to sign a free agent this summer. Just stop mentioning this clown, he has no future here or anywhere else in the NBA. Stern will see to it.

I can't believe we're actually talking about Isiah coming back to New York. I don't understand how people can be so forgetful. The same thing with all of these people saying how they wish Bush was back as president. The worst GM in Knicks history and the worst president in US history and people want them back. What the f#@k is going on?

1. Bush isn't quite the worst president in US history, but that's a debate for another time.
2. Isiah would be useful if he weren't a GM. Like it or not he was a good drafter. Five bucks says he would've taken Lopez and Jennings

Actually, no...he would've taken Eric Gordon. He is an overrated drafter. He had one really good pick and that was David Lee. The rest were mediocre to poor.

Are we living in bizarro world? What is going on here? Doesn't anybody remember how f#@king bad the Isiah days were?

Thomas was a clown. We all know that. If I never heard his name again, it wouldn't bother me one bit.

BUT, the bigger issue is.... OUR OWNER is a friggin' chump. What can we do? If he wants IT back (and it appears he does in some capacity) then we have to swallow it.

It’s pretty clear, to me, that person is none other than the owner.

I want Isiah gone and even to hear his name in GM rumors makes me sick to my stomach.

If he becomes the next GM, Ill prob stop watching the Knicks.

If he stays as a recruiter/scout Ill be fine with that. IF Dolan wants his boyfriend by his side then do it behind the scenes.

And if Isiah really convinces players to come here, then let him try out his charm.

Phew! I think Hahn is saying that this whole entire fiasco (IT returning) is nothing more than an adolescent attempt from Thomas to worm his way back into the picture. He's leaking these stories. Simple as that. They have no merit.

Like Iago.... Thomas is trying to undermine Walsh in some way, to get back into the game- and rewrite history now that NYK has potential & cap freedom.

He probably sees a weakened Walsh, and is trying to go for the kill. Dispicable!

I'm with y'all. If he does return.... EVER.... in any position other than scout, advisor, friend of Dolan.... than I am outta here.
